I made the mistake once of cleaning transitions lenses with a paper towel. Those scratches were not small or unnoticeable sadly. Since that experience, i strictly stick to microfiber.

I’m honestly looking at getting Lasik just so I never have to deal with cleaning glasses so often.

I wouldn’t recommend that if you have any special coatings on the lenses. Basically anything but microfiber cloths will scratch the coating.

Tried from Mullvad’s exit nodes in HK and Singapore. Didn’t seem to work.

Got a source? I'm genuinely curious about that, since I know cold fusion has been long considered the holy grail of energy generation. I just want to hope that it isn't mere science fiction now :(

China built 37 of them in the last 10 years according to the article. It doesn’t take forever, it just takes foresight and planning, which most of the Western world lacks beyond the next quarter profits lol.

The baseline capacity nuclear provides can get evolving countries like China out of the fossil fuel phase, which is critically important. I don’t know what your problem is with nuclear, it’s been a relatively safe and stable form of energy generation that’s far better than any fossil fuel.

Edit: and I just read the top comment in the thread that they're building a fuckton of coal plants too. Damn it.

There is a lot of investment in energy storage solutions. Everyone knows how critically important energy storage is for our climate change present and future, and whoever develops the best and most scalable solution first will make billions of dollars.

Nuclear fission doesn’t get that much investment afaik due to overblown radiation fears, while safe cold fusion is the real end goal of energy generation and deserves more investment than it gets now.

Nuclear is a good middle step to full renewable, it’s not the end goal. There’s not enough storage capacity right now for energy usage at night, which is where nuclear can fill the gap until efficient energy storage can be achieved.

Tesla’s plug. Nearly every auto manufacturer has announced changing to it in future EV generations.

Fair enough, I went lease because everyone’s going NACS soon.
